Skeletal muscle mass increases during postnatal development through a process of
hypertrophy, ie enlargement of individual muscle fibers, and a similar process may be …

Adult skeletal muscle can regenerate in response to muscle damage. This ability is
conferred by the presence of myogenic stem cells called satellite cells. In response to stimuli …

Abundantly expressed in fetal tissues and adult muscle, the developmentally regulated H19
long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) has been implicated in human genetic disorders and cancer …

Mammalian skeletal muscles are composed of a variety of highly specialized fibers whose
selective recruitment allows muscles to fulfill their diverse functional tasks. In addition …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), a chronic catabolic condition, is characterized by muscle
wasting and decreased muscle endurance. Many insights into the molecular mechanisms of …

Skeletal muscle and bone rely on a number of growth factors to undergo development,
modulate growth, and maintain physiological strength. A major player in these actions is …

Although the canonical transforming growth factor β signaling pathway represses skeletal
muscle growth and promotes muscle wasting, a role in muscle for the parallel bone …

Simple Summary One of the traits considered in livestock production is the gain of muscle
mass, which is one of the factors responsible for governing the growth of skeletal muscles …

Establishing sufficient skeletal muscle mass is essential for lifelong metabolic health. The
intrauterine environment is a major determinant of the muscle mass that is present for the life …

Loss of skeletal muscle mass and force aggravates age-related sarcopenia and numerous
pathologies, such as cancer and diabetes. The AKT-mTORC1 pathway plays a major role in …
